Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Gravy Pork Chops recipe
How to Make It
Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker
Lightly grease your slow cooker or use a liner for easier cleanup. This step isn’t strictly necessary, but it helps prevent sticking.
Step 2: Add the Pork Chops
Place the pork chops at the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer if possible. Slight overlap is okay, but avoid stacking too much.
Step 3: Mix the Gravy Base
In a small bowl, combine the gravy mix with the cream soup. Stir until smooth. If the mixture feels too thick, you can add a splash of water (about 2–4 tablespoons) to loosen it slightly.
Step 4: Pour and Coat
Pour the mixture evenly over the pork chops, making sure each piece is well coated.
Step 5: Slow Cook
Cover and cook:
On low for 6–7 hours, or
On high for 3–4 hours
The pork chops are done when they are fork-tender and fully cooked through.
Step 6: Serve
Serve the pork chops hot, spooning extra gravy over the top. This dish pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes, rice, or even buttered noodles.
Tips for Best Results
Choose the right cut: Thicker pork chops tend to stay juicier during slow cooking.
Don’t overcook: Even in a slow cooker, pork can dry out if left too long—check near the end of cooking time.
Enhance the flavor (optional): While the recipe is designed to be minimal, you can add onions, garlic, or mushrooms for extra depth.
